There definitely are challenges as some of our code (full of x-base cursor data munging) is very difficult to translate to .NET, nor is it practical to move that to SQL server. We probably are going to move that module to a VFP COM object and solve this problem later.

Not really... The rewrite was for certain layers within the product, not the entire product.
Now we have decided it has to be a modern GUI written C# in MVC. We have about 3 years for doing that.
